**NEW link for the 11th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign(from August 25 to December 03, 2012).

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week to pray for me, my family and my ministry, remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,100 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,100 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!


Today's Reading: Jonah 4

Please read Jonah 4 and listen to what the Lord Jesus Christ would like to tell you before reading my Spiritual Journal below. If you would like to learn a simple and good way of Daily Devotion method please read my “Count Down 5” from this blog. You may click this link directly for the method: Subject Shifting Devotion.pdf. (You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.)

Bible Study

God gave Jonah another chance. God gave the Ninevites another chance. But, Jonah did not want to give the Ninevites another chance and he waited there waiting to see how the city of Nineveh was about to be destroyed by God.

Rather than rejecting Jonah because of his bad attitude, lack of compassion and wrong response, God lovingly tried to convince him, through the miracle of the fast-growing vine, that he was concerned for him, for Israel and for other nations.

God has given you many, many chances through the past so many years, how are you willing to give another chance to some people around you that you find them hopeless and not willing to listen to your way?
Is your way truly God's way or just "my way"?  

My Spiritual Journal

What I got from Jesus today is: Give them another chance please!
What I received from Jesus today is a plead for you not stepping into the same mistake as Jonah did - insist on his own way!

God's way is always full of gracious and compassionate. How gracious and compassionate you are? Or you are just one of those 'stern" and "black" faces tyrant wanting all people to follow your own way? 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to really follow you and are willing to obey your way but not our own way.  Transform us to be a more gracious and passionate disciple of you that we can bring true freedom and healing to many people. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen.
